This work, the writings of Suntzu and Wutzu, Chinese strategists of
about the fifth century B.C., is the most famous work on the art of
war in the Far East. It deals with operations of war, statecraft,
moral and training of troops, stratagem, the use of spies, etc., and
for twenty-five centuries it has been the bible of the Chinese or
Japanese ruler. The book is distinguished alike by the poetry and
grandeur of its language and the modernity of its spirit.
